It looks like there's a problem with your pre-existing EnsDb, that it got wiped out somehow or corrupted.

One thing you could do is to go into the BiocFileCache and remove this EnsDb entry so it will be downloaded again.

library(BiocFileCache)
bfc <- BiocFileCache()
bfcinfo(bfc)
bfcremove(bfc, rids="...")

Where you should fill in the rids that matches the EnsDb.

I'm going to close this, but feel free to re-open if the above doesn't fix.
